The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a fresh chargesheet in a case that alleges a private school in West Bengal was engaging in a scam by demanding payments of ₹10 to 20 lakh per post. The chargesheet, which was released recently, cites a "rate card" that the school purportedly used to justify the high fees.

According to the document, the school’s fee structure was allegedly designed to generate substantial revenue from parents, raising questions about the legality of such practices and the enforcement of educational regulations in the state.

The new chargesheet is part of a broader probe into the school’s financial dealings, and it underscores the need for stricter oversight of private educational institutions in West Bengal. Authorities are expected to conduct further investigations and may consider additional legal action if necessary.
